Caitlin Clark remains a big draw after a record-setting career at Iowa, but Cameron Brink and Angel Reese are also playing key roles on their new teams.

But as the game grows, more people are talking about women’s basketball, although the conversation has taken a few turns in recent weeks. To Brink, though, one talking ...

The WNBA rescinded the second technical foul assessed to Angel Reese, according to Annie Costabile. Reese was ejected from Chicago’s game against New York. Reese received her fifth foul of the game, but was also whistled for a technical foul, which led to her ejection.

After the whistle, she appeared to wave off the referee as she walked away, which likely led to her ejection. Reese finished with 13 points and 10 rebounds in the effort and recorded her first career block. However, the Sky we...

Angel Reese has once again found herself in the WNBA headlines but this instance is a little more head-scratching. Reese was ejected from Chicago’s loss to New York on Tuesday night, earning two technical fouls in the span of a few seconds. To this point, there has not been an explanation as to why Reese received the two techs and was ejected from the game. Not even Sky head coach Teresa Weatherspoon is sure about the situation, saying nothing has been told to her. “I tried to get an explanation and I did not,” Weatherspoon said, via the Chicago Tribune’s Julia Poe. “I don’t know at this momen...

Amid all of the Clark conversation early on in her rookie season in the WNBA, there’s been a flurry of takes ranging from on the court, to social issues surrounding the league. On the surface, Clark’s admittance into the league after a superstar collegiate career has been great for the women’s game. More eyes and listeners to women’s basketball is always a good thing.
